The NYU Health Sciences Libraries created an account on Twitter, a microblogging service, as a new outreach tool marketed to students, faculty, and staff. The team used Twitter to promote resources, events, and news. Twitter is a part of a pipeline of information that also includes the library's Web site and Facebook. Although it is difficult to measure the effectiveness of a social networking tool, the overhead of using Twitter is so low that it merits consideration.
纽约大学健康科学图书馆在微博服务平台推特上创建了一个账号，作为面向学生、教师和工作人员推广的新宣传工具。该团队利用推特来宣传资源、活动和新闻。推特是信息传播渠道的一部分，该渠道还包括图书馆网站和脸书。虽然很难衡量社交网络工具的有效性，但使用推特的成本如此之低，值得考虑。
